This cross-sectional analysis examines cognitive function in older adults, highlighting the role of resilience and social support.
Resilience and social support were independently and jointly associated with cognitive function among middle-aged and older adults. These associations appeared to be stronger in women, although variation by sex was observed. Given the cross-sectional design, the findings should be interpreted as exploratory, and further longitudinal and interventional studies are needed to clarify the role of psychosocial resources in cognitive ageing.
